Written as a first-person diary, this hardboiled work provides a poignant glimpse into a serial murderer's mind as it follows him and teenage charmer Jenny on a road trip from Kansas to the Florida Keys. . Jenny falls in love with Bobby and wants to marry him to "make up for what your mom did," but he has other plans. The novel, full of oddball adventures, moves inexorably to its tragic ending in a cove on the Florida Keys. A haunting tale of with unforgettable characters, it has important things to say about love, murder, racial hatred and American culture.
